The Minnesota Twins Amazing Bobblehead Giveaway

The Minnesota Twins Amazing Bobblehead Giveaway

The 2011 baseball season will mark the 20th anniversary of the thrilling 1991 World Series that saw a multitude of heroics — remember Kirby’s catch? — lead to a world championship for the Minnesota Twins over the Atlanta Braves.

To honor quite easily the most impossible-to-forget moment, the Twins will celebrate (as a bobblehead) the polarizing wrestling match at first base that saw Kent Hrbek, as Braves fans might be apt to say, airlift Ron Gant off the bag and tag him out.

It’s especially fantastic in bobblehead form. Unless of course you’re a Braves fan, which would make this entire giveaway — along with this post — excruciatingly vomitous. Have to admit though, Gant appears to be enjoying it.

I don’t like being “that guy” but you’re missing an “e” in bobblehead.

Yea, looked at the hour-by-hour outlook. Still 40% chance by 11am tomorrow. 12-18″.

I think congratulations are in order. Matt Cooke successfully played a full period of hockey and everyone on the other team is still 100% lucid. Perhaps he’s waiting to brain someone in the last 40 minutes of play today.

Has not snowed as much as I thought in the NW Twin Cities area where I am. This is a great bobblehead. Cannot wait to get them this year being a season ticket holder.

When the hell are they going to start selling single game tickets? I’m still debating whether or not to just get a 20 game pack or single games, but would like to see it happen sometime soon though.

Anyone else watching the 500? It is crazy to see them go 3 wide, 2 deep.

How much are those usually? I can’t find a price online

Go to mntwins.com, should have all the info there. I have the first section of the $10/game tix right by 1st base. Best deal at Target Field. My buddy has tix right behind the dugout but those are too pricey for me.

Just started snowing like mad here in the grove with maples…

Yea, 20 game package sounds better, will have to wait for the next check in a week and a half anyways. Just getting the field view, kind of love the view from there as long as you’re not stuck in the far corner.
